"Hannah’s densely packed compositions consciously recall classical elements from our past and combine them with our modern attractions, creating cohesive yet opposing array's of imagery and embellishment. She focuses on the contrasts between periods in time, subcultures and social trends - and merges them together with a high regard for traditional decoration. No wonder she has been shaking the world of contemporary art."- Juxtapoz
Check out the '20 Questions' feature that Juxtapoz posted this weekend with Hannah Stoufferhere.

Look for a small show of new works as part of our 'Fresh Faces' series this July from Hannah alongside solo shows from Stella Im Hultberg and Catherine Brooks. After that we have plans to take her down to Miami this coming December during Art Basel and then, in March 2010, we'll be rockin' a full-on solo in our project room of her works and continuing to build from there. We are SUPER jazzed to be working with her, and can't wait for more to be exposed to her vibrant and unique work.

Sour Harvest was launched in the winter of 2004 as a means to better showcase the emerging Los Angeles new contemporary art scene. We relaunched the site in a blog based format during the winter of 2007/2008 to allow for easier and more frequent updates. Features include our widely popular suggested show listings for the Los Angeles area (that are posted here and also sent out via e-mail on a weekly basis - sign up below), as well as regular show reviews, previews, interviews with our artists, and general updates on all the happenings at Thinkspace Gallery and our scene as a whole.
Established in November of 2005, Thinkspace exists as a catalyst for the ever expanding new contemporary art movement that is exploding forth from the streets and art schools the world over. We are here to help represent this new generation of artists, to provide them that home base and to aid them in building the right awareness and collector base necessary for long-term growth.
